VII Flashcards
sympathetic opthalmia
spared eye injury
immune mediated inflammation of one eye after penetrating injury to other eye
manifests as anterior uveitis- can progress to papillary edema and blindness
mechanism– hidden antigens that are “uncovered”
cause of compresstion fracture
osteoporosis
loss of bone mineral density
tinea versicolor
malasseiza globosa hypopigmented and hyperpigmented lesions fine scale and pruritis KOH show hyphae and yeast cells buzz= spaghetti and meatballs pattern
Tx for tinea versicolor
topical ketoconazole, terbinafine or selenium sulfide
presentation and lab values of VIPoma
watery diarrhea, flushing, lethargy, n/v, hypokalemia, hyperCa, hyperglycemia
where are VIPomas usually found
pancreatic tail
localized with abdominal CT or MRI
Tx for VIPoma
IV volume repletion, ocreotide, and hepatic resection if mets to liver
if patient has positive urine bilirubin then is buildup conj or unconj
conj
+ bilirubin in UA
normal ALT AST and AlkPhos
rotors syndrome
defect in hepatic secretion of conjugate bilirubin into the biliary sytem
labs of nonseminomatous germ cell tumor
increased bhcg and increased AFP
labs of seminomatous germ cell tumor
increased b-hcg but not increased AFP
Tx for meningitis in immunocompromised patients
Vanco, ampicillin plus cefepine or ceftazidime
Tx goodpastures
emergency plasmaphoresis
Tx wegeners
cyclophosphamide and steroids
what can cause nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
peripheral insulin resistance that leads to increased peripheral lipolysis, triglyceride synthesis and hepatic uptake of fatty acids
CBC in crohns
anemia and reactive thrombocytosis
signs of toxic shock syndrome
fever, myalgias, marked hypotension and diffuse erythematous macular rash
most common source of DVT
proximal deep leg veins
symptoms of intracranial HTN, pseudotumor cerebri
holocranial HA, vision changes, pulsatile tinnitus “whooshing sound to ears”
progression of malignant otitis externa
osteomyelitis of the skull base and destruction facial nerve
